Inspiring quotes said by prof. Randy in the lecture “Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you”. “When you see yourself doing something badly and nobody's bothering to tell you anymore, that's a very bad place to be. Your critics are the ones telling you they still love you and care”. “Never lose the child-like wonder. It's just too important. It's what drives us”. Do not tell people how to live their lives. Just tell them stories. And they will figure out how those stories apply to them. 8
